Skywatcher Evostar-120 HEQ-5 Pro SynScan
Telescope
Skywatcher Evostar-120 HEQ-5 Pro SynScan Telescope is two-element, air-spaced,
multi-coated objective achromatic refractors which allow this instrument to produce some quality results
which can easily meet the expectations of the user in a true way. This
Skywatcher
Telescope
is well suited for astrophotography. 9x50 finderscope is for fast and accurate
tracking of objects while mount with knobs is for manual adjustment. Prism rail
is for easy mounting of optics while one may not forget to mention here about
the built-in dual-axis stepper motors, built-in polar alignment scope holder,
sturdy steel tripod (height adjustable from 97cm to 121cm) and adjustable lens
mount.
Heavy-duty HEQ5 Pro mount is a smaller version of the sturdy EQ6 Pro mount. It is specially designed for observers who need the steadiness of the EQ6 Pro mount, but find the EQ6 Pro mount too physically demanding. For novice users the user-friendly menu allows automatic slewing to over 13,400 objects. Even an inexperienced astronomer can master its variety of features in a few observing sessions. The SynScan Hand Control also has the ability to connect to a computer via a RS-232 cable. Once the connection has been established between the computer and SynScan Hand Control, many commercially available planetarium software programs can be used to control the HEQ5 PRO Mounts, They also come with features that advanced astronomers can appreciate.
